    Raffa got ahold of them boys at OMF.... This is what they had to say....What do you think?


    Hey Jeff,
    Thanks for checking out our website. We do still offer the swing arm skid plate for the old Tri-Z 250. I don't have any built in stock, but I could have one built up for you withing a couple weeks. Cost per skid is $99.95. By the way, how did you hear about us? Were you searching for skids and we popped up or did someone tell you that we offered them?

    Thanks,
    Bones

    I bought an omf skid. They are real nice and tight to the stock size rear sprocket. have a nice rubber strip too. Youll never worry about throwing chains with the OMF. Unfortunately i sold mine with the tri-z, but they are really worth it. They take six weeks to build them and ship though. Come with the appropriate spacers and hw. Real slick look to it.

    They are cool on the phone too. Definitely support a company that supports our trikes with parts.

    Thanks for the info bro. I believe i will be getting myself one of these bad boys! I could spend 50-60 shipped for a used tri-z swinger guard or i can go better and beefier than new!

    Count me in. I was planning on calling them anyways. Chances are they'll want to deal with us each individually though. I've never been in on a group buy.
